2019 Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival preview

From the food to the flowers, spring is in full swing at Epcot and we're ready!

The sun is shining and the flowers are blooming -- that is if you live in Florida. As the temperatures rise that can only mean one thing: The Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival is quickly approaching.


This festival brings out the green thumb in all of us as we venture around Showcase Lagoon to look at jaw-dropping topiaries, eat magnificent food and partake in special experiences only offered at the Flower and Garden Festival. This year the festival has some new additions you won't want to miss. 

Highlights of the festival will include:


Delicious snacks and libations at various outdoor kitchens

Dozens of world-renowned, Disney-themed topiaries

Captivating garden spaces and wildlife habitats

“How-To” garden exhibits

Outdoor concert series featuring guest-favorite bands 

Festival merchandise that will make the whole family happy


This year the festival is offering new topiaries including Bo-Peep and her sheep and Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy. Families will want to check out the new Play Full Garden where you can join activities focused on nutrition and wellness. Along with new sculptures and experiences the festival is adding four new outdoor kitchens to the lineup. Below you can view some of the items they will be serving up.
